About biographical information
JP Caillault sponsor(s) this page.
19th-century baseball's forgotten superstar. When he retired in 1893, he was the all-time HR leader AND the all-time SB leader. Stovey at one time held the single-SEASON records in both categories, too. His bio, "Power and Speed," will be published soon.
